QM-Music: Your Personal "Private NetEase Cloud"

a year ago

What is QM-Music?

Simply put, QM-Music is a self-hosted music server. You upload your music files to the server, and then you can listen to your music anytime, anywhere on your phone, computer, or tablet. It's as convenient as using NetEase Cloud Music, but you have complete control over your music library.

Most importantly: It's based on the Subsonic protocol, which means you can use a wide range of existing clients to listen to your music, without worrying about the lack of a good player.
